As a futureproof technology, fiber transmits data over long distances at the speed of light. The advantages are numerous, including an ultra-fast and much more stable Internet connection as well as an ultra-low latency.
Proximus is modernizing its network (teaming up with other partners such as Fiberklaar and Unifiber) and is gradually replacing its current copper cables with fiber cables. And unlike most other operators, Proximus installs fiber until the inside of its customers' homes to guarantee the best possible performance, today and tomorrow. Ultimately, the Proximus copper network will be completely replaced by this new technology.
Thanks to a close collaboration with the construction sector, most new housing estates and apartment buildings are swiftly connected to our fiber network.
